A new report by the Future Skills Organisation (FSO) has projected that Australia will face a shortfall of 250,000 skilled workers by 2030 in its finance, technology, and business sectors. The report highlighted that demand for these roles is growing much faster than the supply of graduates from domestic education and training, urging a system-wide effort, including migration, to bridge the skills gap.
